insert this on onMessange event func

$json =  (json_decode($msg,true)); // {"userID":"#", "sendTo":"#", "message":"lorem"}
$msg = $json['message'];
$tosendid = $json['sendTo'];
foreach ($this->clients as $client) {
   if ($tosendid == $client->resourceId) {
                $client->send($msg);
   }
}

I have the same situation and I don't understand how to get $client->resourceId on the front (browser)? I mean when I send message I need to know to which user send this message. In example above you compare $client->resourceId. How I can get it?
